A very chill Witcher event for the darkest time of the year, Witchery Fluffvent!
Create something Witchery and fluffy for the 4 Sundays in Advent: art, fics, gifs, moodboards, whatever tickles your fancy. It only has to somewhat fit the season and contain some fluffy moments, preferably with a happy ending. It can be SFW or NSFW, all pairings, or no pairings at all. Bonus points if it also features a monster!
In case you'd like some prompts to get started, you can use the pictures below for inspiration or spin the Fluffy Winter Prompts wheel.
If you'd like to include a monster prompt, here is the Witchery Monster Prompt wheel.
You can freely combine the Witchery Fluffvent with any other event if the other event allows it, for example with @fluff-cember, @hurtcember , @fluffbruary 's infinyfluff prompts, or bingo cards.
Important: Tag #witcheryfluffvent and @witchermonstermayhem to be reblogged on one of the Advent Sundays.
The AO3 collection is here!
Dates for reblogs: 30th November and 7th, 14th and 21st December
For late entries also 25th December and 1st January
If you have any questions, send me an ask!
Have fun creating!

Summary: Geralt's company find a deserted farmstead and decide to spend the night in the barn. Unfortunately, they are not alone ...
sequel to the first ficlet I wrote for @witchermonstermayhem's Yuletide Calendar 2024
the prompt was gloves/mittens (they turned into a shawl though)
Winter in Toussaint was never particularly cold, and Regis would not have minded or even noticed if it had been. But he did love the few genuinely cold days in midwinter when there was frost on the meadows that lasted through the day, and maybe even snow.
Today was one of these days, with big fluffy flakes that floated to the ground and muffled every sound. Already, the vineyard was covered in a white blanket, and the colourful houses of Corvo seemed even brighter against the snow.
Regis watched Geralt walk around the grounds with B.B., checking on things and discussing repairs to be made once the weather turned warm again. B.B. was wrapped up in warm clothes, a shawl and a hat - as a lifelong inhabitant of Toussaint, this was deepest winter for him. Geralt merely wore a jacket over his clothes, but he was sporting the green fingerless gloves Regis had knitted. Being sat on had left no permanent scars on them.
When Geralt headed up the stairs to the main house, Regis went inside to collect a pot of tea and some of Marlene's anise cookies. He carried it all upstairs, hearing Geralt rummaging around in his chest in the bedroom while he arranged the tea pot and cups on the table. It had grown into a habit, meeting to drink tea or wine in the summer and chatting about their day. After having been away for weeks, Regis was looking forward to it. He did not travel often any more, but he still had friends all over the Continent and made a point out of going to see them regularly.
Geralt brought with him the scent of snow and winter, and of sheep and coffee. He cast a glance at the seat of his chair, and when it was free of knitwear, he sat down and held out a package to Regis, wrapped in burlap and tied with twine.
"I made something for you." There was a shyness to his smile that Regis didn't often see, and he found it as endearing as he found the package intriguing.
"Oh?" He untied the twine while Geralt poured the tea and picked up a first cookie, fitting it into his mouth whole. Even with plenty to eat in the house at all times, Regis had noticed Geralt fell back into his Witcher days eating habits when he was stressed, or nervous, or simply distracted: ravenous and fast.
The burlap fell open and revealed a knitted scarf, the wool a grey so dark is almost seemed purple. It was soft and broad, long enough to reach down to Regis' thighs if he simply wore it around his neck.
"I know you don't strictly speaking <i>need</i> it, but it's good camouflage. It will stop the old women from telling me to tell <i>you</i> to dress warmer." Geralt had made another cookie disappear, and Regis grabbed one for himself.
"I strictly speaking do not need many things that I enjoy, and I will enjoy this. It's lovely." He pushed his nose into the wool and inhaled the scent. "Did you dye it yourself? Who taught you to knit?"
"I did. And I asked Marlene, who asked Annie, who was very patient. Hiding it from you was the worst thing. If you hadn't left, I don't think I would have finished it in time for the cold weather. I'm glad I can still surprise you." The shyness had made room for pride, the smile turning into a fangy grin that Regis knew some people found off putting but he never had, for obvious reasons.
"My dear Geralt, I would never dare to think I have fathomed all your secrets." Regis leaned over for a kiss. "But this is a particularly delightful one. Thank you. For the scarf, and the surprise."
A big thank you to everybody who contributed with fluffy fics and art and left kudos & nice comments or reblogged! Have a wonderful 2026 🥳🥂🍾.
All in all 37,562 words of fic were written and four pieces of art were drawn and four moodboards and eight new playing cards were created for the event.

"Might you be afraid? Of the ice breaking, or of looking undignified as you fall? The latter will happen, but you are a fast learner." Yen smiles at Hadi and stands, carefully making the few steps to the edge of the ice. She has not done this in a long time. Not since Ciri has been little.

No one around for miles but Eskel and him. Geralt wishes for nothing. He merely turns Eskel around in his arms so the fire can heat Eskel's back and he gets to kiss Eskel, slow and deep.
seeking shelter from a snow storm, Eskel and Geralt find ways to pass the night pleasantly

Yennefer & Geralt invite everyone back to the festival they enjoyed two years ago, with famous hot springs, dancing, cranberry wine, and more. Pretty much the whole Hansa return, but Cahir is hoping one member in particular will return. The one who disappeared almost a year ago and took his heart with her.

The first of December is coming closer and closer! And you can still claim a prompt for the Witcher Yuletime calendar.
For the prompts that have not been claimed yet, I've added alternative ones, maybe one of them tickles your creativity?
But there can be more than one entry for the same prompt. The more, the merrier!
No time to create something new? Not a problem! You can also share an old work of yours or recommend somebody else's work! Any form of fanwork (except AI) is welcome as long as it fits the spirit of the season.
The overall goal of the event is to have at least one entry for every day that other people can enjoy during Yuletide as their daily dose of The Witcher.
If you have questions, please don't hesitate to send an ask!
Please share this post so that many Witcher fans can join the event. Thank you!
Rules/FAQs below the cut.
Claim a day/prompt (or more than one) and post something for it before your day, tagging @witchermonstermayhem and #yuletidecalendar so that I can find and share it with everybody on the day the calendar door opens.
What can you share? Fics, Poems, Art, Edits, Recipes, Mood boards, whatever you like! It should fit the prompt and the season and must be related to The Witcher somehow.
Do I have to create something new? - No! You can also share an old work of yours or recommend somebody else's work. The only thing that's not allowed is AI created stuff.
How do I claim a prompt? - Please send me a message to let me know which prompt(s) you'd like to share something for until 30th November.
Is NSFW allowed? - Yes! Just tag it properly, please.
Are modern AUs and crossovers allowed? - Yes, definitely!
I missed the deadline to claim a prompt. Can I still participate? - Yes, no problem! Just post before the day of the prompt and tag me so that I can share it. The claiming is just so that I can see which days have not been claimed and can find something to share myself.
Can I combine this event with other events? - Yes! As long as the other event allows it, combine as much as you like. For example there's @fluff-cember, @whumpcember, @hurtcember, @12daysofchristmas or maybe you have a bingo card that is not done yet.
Can I combine different days of the event? - No, not really as each entry is for one specific day only. If you want to write a single fic for several prompts, it will work only if the prompts are used in different chapters and in chronological order.
Can I be a completionist? - If you want to share something for every day, that's awesome and then you're definitely a completionist! But it's also great if you share something for just one day.
Is there an Ao3 collection? Yes, it's here: WitcheryYuletideCalendar
(You can already post to it, but it won't be revealed before 1st December)
